Wallet Address vs. Legacy Address: What’s the Difference?


When sending or receiving Bitcoin, you’ll see two address types:

  • Wallet Address: The newer format, starting with “bc1”. It’s more efficient, usually has lower fees, and faster processing.
  • Legacy Address: The older format, starting with “1”. Still supported but may have higher fees.


Note: If unsure, the Wallet Address is typically the better choice.
